Trump: the Consummate TV Huckster


Yes.  Because that's who he is:  a star.  He's now famously said so himself.

He is the only one who knows who the finalists are for the beauty pageants, for The Apprentice and for the White House administration.  It's all of a piece.

I believe it was Matt Taibbi who said that Trump's debate taunt about keeping us in suspense over whether or not he'd accept the results of the election was exactly what a TV star would say in order to get you to tune in to the next episode.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
